Modern Slavery Statement — Movers Removals

Movers Removals is committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms across our operations and supply chains. This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our approach, sets out our zero-tolerance policy, and confirms the steps we take to identify and mitigate the risk of slavery and forced labour in the services we provide.

Scope and Commitment

We operate with a clear zero-tolerance policy towards any form of forced labour, bonded labour, or human trafficking. Our anti-slavery and human trafficking policy applies to all employees, contractors and the third-party partners that support Movers Removals. We expect the same high standards from suppliers, subcontractors and business partners in every jurisdiction where we operate.

Principles and Values

At the heart of our slavery statement is a commitment to respect human rights and promote ethical working conditions. We will not knowingly engage with organisations that tolerate exploitative labour practices. Our corporate values emphasise transparency, fairness and the ongoing improvement of labour standards throughout our removal and logistics supply chains.

Risk Assessment and Due Diligence

Movers Removals conducts regular risk assessments to identify areas of higher risk for modern slavery, including seasonal hiring, subcontracted moving crews, and international supply purchases. We apply proportionate due diligence for new suppliers and enhanced checks for suppliers operating in high-risk sectors or regions.

We operate a supplier onboarding checklist that includes identity verification, employment practices review and contractual clauses that require compliance with our anti-slavery expectations. Where risks are identified, we work with suppliers to implement corrective action plans and monitor remediation progress.

Our approach includes supplier audits and verification activities: we perform on-site and remote supplier audits, request documentary evidence of employment records, and assess recruitment practices to reduce reliance on fee-charging labour providers. These supplier audits form a core part of our efforts to prevent modern slavery within our vendor network.

We provide training to procurement, operations and HR teams to ensure that staff can recognise signs of exploitation and know how to escalate concerns. Movers Removals has clear reporting channels so that workers, suppliers and partners can raise concerns confidentially and without fear of retaliation.

Reporting channels include a confidential whistleblowing line, an internal incident reporting procedure and escalation to senior management for suspected modern slavery incidents. We treat all reports seriously and undertake timely investigations, taking action which may include terminating contracts, referring matters to authorities and supporting victims through appropriate services.

Monitoring, Governance and Annual Review

Governance of our anti-slavery response is overseen by executive leadership. We maintain documented processes, track key performance indicators and report progress internally. This modern slavery statement will be reviewed and updated at least annually to reflect developments in our business, supply chains and applicable law. The results of our annual review inform changes to training, supplier audits and our contractual standards.
